The Paper Magician by Charlie N. Holmberg
3.0

I’m teetering between a 2.5 and a 3 so maybe we’ll call this a 2.75.

While this story was unique for me, I just didn’t get in to it. Ceony’s relationship with Emery is weird, I didn’t get it. The story went way left field, didn’t get that either. I was hoping to be convinced that a paper magician was great and exciting but I didn’t find it to be. I’d be mad if I had to be a paper magician. Overall, the story was confusing and underwhelming. I wasn’t convinced and I will not be moving on with this series.
